Hi…
I’m Maxi Malone (it’s the name I use to write my books). Actually, I always use it. Everyone calls me Maxi except my husband, he calls me honey.
I was born in Staten Island, New York but spent very little time there. Miami, Florida is where I grew up and consider it my home town.
I’m third in line of seven kids, so I know all about loud noise, standing in line, leftovers, hand-me-downs, etc.
My mom stayed home and dad played piano in the cabarets. While we were awake he was asleep, so we didn’t see too much of dad.
There’s a lot of chaos in a house filled with that many kids; you have to find a place to go. Make your own place actually.
We all have it—a place inside that lights us up —even if we are not aware. The spark exploded in me the day I wrote my first complete sentence.
Now those sentences are written until they become a novel. It’s my addiction.
What’s yours?
Until we meet again…
May Your Glass Always Be Half Full
Update: I lost my husband to lung cancer in August. There are no words to explain the pain and misery. Yet, I promised to go on, to live well, and to finish the novel.
I will keep my promise…
